Does ASA 5500 have email alert function??

[Jo Hua Wang]

     If asa finds the abnormal behavior, can set up and send email to administrative  mailbox?

[Jennifer Halim]

what sort of abnormal behaviour do you mean?

Do you mean ASA interface failure, software error, any error that can generate a syslog message? If yes, then you can configure syslog messages and get the syslog sends to email.

Here is the configuration for your reference:
